Hello,
I think, there could a bug in your patch.

You enable 64 bit addressing (64b dma bus width) always when appropriate architecture config option is enabled.
But there are some legacy controllers which do not support that feature. According Cadence hardware team:
"64 bit addressing was added in July 2013. Earlier version do not have it.
This feature was enhanced in release August 2014 to have separate upper address values for transmit and receive."

It will not work for legacy hardware. Old descriptor is 2 words wide, the new one is 4 words wide.
If you enable CONFIG_ARCH_DMA_ADDR_T_64BIT but hardware doesn't support it at all,
you will miss every second descriptor.
